Hi All, need some help,

I have been trying to get kernel 2.1.90 and/or 2.1.104 going under RH5.1.
The problem is that it wont load any of my modules (ie network devices).
I think it is something to do with the change from kerneld to kmod.

I tried editing the kerneld script to look for /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe
before executing kerneld but this didn't work.

I also get the following error message booting the 2.1.90+ kernels - but I
cannot see what is causing it.

Finding module dependancies... can't open /lib/modules/prefered/modules.def

Does anyone have any ideas or know what changes I need to make to the RH
scripts to work with the kmod kernels.

Matt
